OSNews reviews Apple's latest OS upgrade. Is it an overpriced, glorified point release or a truly worthy upgrade with major new functionality? Is it a Longhorn killer or just more of the same? We'll take a look, and try to see what's on the surface as well as what's under the hood.

I plan on buying Tiger this weekend (along with a spare drive so I can set my Mac up w/Raid 0 when I reinstall), but I was wondering something:

Have they fixed Finder so that windows in the background update correctly? That's been the most annoying thing about OSX for me! Specifically, I'm referring to how when a directorys contents change, the updates are only reflected when a window has a focus, not when it's visible, but in the background.
